Acceleration of nerve regeneration by gangliosides estimated by the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP)

Experientia volume 37, pages 301–302 (1981)Cite this article

Summary

Cortical potentials disappear after peripheral denervation of the somatosensory pathway and are again detectable after regeneration of the transected stump. The characteristic increase of the sensory thereshold is significantly reduced by daily ganglioside administration.
